Description:

Recently in my hunt for good postcards I came across these rather LARGE postcards. I showed my husband and we both thought, what a neat idea for a swap. (However I'm going to include odd shaped as well)

รขโ„ขยฅNow when I say large postcards, I'm not talking the 3 1/2 x 8 (and obviously not the standard size either). These postcards were around the size of a piece standard size paper...little bit smaller. Of course if you can't find anything that size either it's ok, but find something larger than the regular and or even an odd shape postcard.

รขโ„ขยฅBecause this is such an odd postcard swap, the postcard does not have to be something on your partners list of things they like, however do not send anything offensive or anything you would not like yourself.

รขโ„ขยฅFor the postcards I do not want anyone to use freebies or advertisement postcards, they need to be store bought and sent naked unless if your partner request in an envelope (because honestly it's going to cost more than a postcard stamp anyways). I'm leaving the swap up for 3 weeks (plenty of time to find one), then you will have 2 weeks to send it out by (which gives you more time to find one). You will have 1 partner (again to see how well it is, if it's a hit maybe next time we'll have more partners).

If anyone has any questions at all, please feel free to contact me or leave a comment below! Most importantly HAVE FUN.

I hope that you in the future can host an international version of this swap :)

I plan to in the near future. I wanted to see how many people actually responded to this. I wonder if I can change this and make it to international if noone really signs up?

Remember that larger than normal postcard is NOT .27 cents to send within the USA. Large cards that exceed the maximum dimensions of a postcard (4-1/4 inches by 6 inches) pay the First-Class Mail letter price .42 or First-Class Mail large envelope price .83 (if it is larger than 6-1/8 inches by 11-1/2 inches).

Yes, thank you for putting the cost up there! I wasn't sure the exact cost, but I made sure to mention that it would cost more than a normal postcard swap.
